The Ruined Rainbow

CHAPTER 44

Sahil

Well, I have been quite bored. Walking for a fashion ramp is quite exhausting. Walk for a thousand times with different females is not something that I would want to do because I have only one woman in my life.

Once I arrived, as my life would have it, Rhea was one of the leading ramp walkers. Sayn, the fashionista and the costume designer, mainly had brought her here saying that we would both look good as a pair and would attract a lot of popularity.

Well, HELL to the popularity. And HELL to him.

Rhea, as usual, has been the most annoying person. As soon as I arrived, I was greeted by the horrible smell of her perfume and a hug. I rolled my eyes at her; surely there was a limit right? But no. She did not seem to have the necessary sense.

The more she got ready, the more fabulous she looked. But she still was that underperformed compared to My Ayesha.

Ayesha... Probably the one girl who could look the cutest on her pyjamas and messy hairs. She indeed had my heart stolen, and my thoughts regarding her escaped the steal.

Bangalore has been warm as ever. I had arrived here for a variety of shoots, and it was one of the best cities in the nation. The hall where the fashion show would take place was richly decorated, and the paps stood ready as ever, wanting to tarnish the newspapers with their dirty rumours.

I knew that it was just a matter of time before the paps found out about Ayesha. It's not that I care, I would love to declare her as the girl of my life. However, I don't suppose she would prefer it. Who would prefer an experience of continuous irritation and annoyance?

Idiots like me.

Sayn had particularly requested me to walk the ramp. Little did I know that I would have to walk with the witch of my life. I closed my eyes, wanting to remember Ayesha's face, as the makeup artists dabbed their magic on me. I was given a white sherwani, which was plain yet functional.

Rhea arrived shortly while later, wearing a heavy embroidered white lehenga, silver sequins and a V-neck that went down. She was cloaked in a veil of makeup and looked okayish to me. She was just a speck of dust compared to a messy Ayesha. She gave me a bright smile to which I responded with an eye roll. She frowned.

Sayn arrived and made us stand together, inspecting us, " Hmm, " he murmured, "You both are looking great!!! The design perfectly suits you guys, doesn't it?"

As we both walked, hand in hand, applauds and whistles erupted in the hall. The more we walked together, Rhea whispered,

"What's up with that look? Why aren't you smiling and looking cheerful?"

"Because I'm with you. " I replied earnestly, rolling my eyes.

"People will think something is wrong with us! "

"Something is. "

"Why aren't you that OLD Sahil who used to smile always?"

"Because that OLD Sahil found a new girlfriend, " I replied in a duh tone. To which she tightened her hold on my hand in anger.

"Why aren't you smiling Rhea? " I smirked, "What will the paps think of us?" And dropped her hand coolly and walked ahead. She froze in shock for a minute, but recovered and caught up with speed.
